Title: Color-codeable couplings for fire hoses
Inventor: RICHARDSON ROBERT
IPC: F16L11/00
Filed: 2012-02-21
Abstract: A fire hose coupling comprises a first coupler body having a first recessed portion that includes a first visual indication. The coupling also comprises a second coupler body adapted to be coupled to the first coupler body to form the coupling, the second coupler body having a second recessed portion that includes a second visual indication matching the first visual indication. Color-coded stickers or adhesive-backed high-visibility decals may be adhered to the recessed portions. The couplings may be recoded by adhering differently colored stickers.

Because of the recesses, the color--coded stickers are substantially protected from abrasion or wear and tear.
Patent CA-2775040-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RANSON WILLIAM
IPC: G06K7/10
Filed: 2010-03-23
Abstract: A digital strain encoder includes a gage-emitter, a sensor-receiver, a transmitter, and an energy source. The gage-emitter is affixable to a surface to be measured and deformable on a one-to-one basis with the surface, and emits a reference strain signal in the absence of strain and an altered strain signal when the surface is subjected to strain and the gage-emitter is deformed. The gage-emitter also emits a unique reference identification signal. The sensor-receiver floats over the gage-emitter so as not to deform with the surface, and detects the reference and altered strain signals and the identification signal emitted by the gage-emitter. The transmitter is coupled to the sensor-receiver for transmitting the detected reference and altered strain signals to a remote receiver.

Title: Systems and methods for optically generated trigger multiplication
Inventor: CHILDERS BROOKS A
IPC: G01J1/02
Filed: 2011-01-27
Abstract: Systems and methods for providing trigger signals in an optical interrogator, wherein multiple triggers are generated within each period of a varying reference signal, and wherein the triggers are evenly spaced according to the wavenumber of the reference signal. In one embodiment, an optical frequency domain reflectometry system provides a laser beam to a reference interferometer to produce a reference signal. This signal is passed through a 4x4 optical coupler which splits the signal Into a first signal and a second signal that is 90 degrees out of phase with the first signal. These signals are converted to electrical signals, and a trigger unit generates triggers at points at which the two electrical signals have zero-crossings, and at which the magnitudes of the signals are equal. The resulting triggers remain evenly spaced within the period of the reference signals, even when the period is changed.

Title: A natural method for the treatment for canker disease on trees
Inventor: REZAZADEH MOSLEM
IPC: A01G7/06
Filed: 2012-10-11
Abstract: This invention provides a natural method for the treatment of canker disease on branch fork of the tree. The treatment method incorporates the use of a turnbuckle that is securely mounted in the fork of the tree where canker disease is present. The turnbuckle is gradually adjusted by 1/8 to 1/4 inch two times each year in order to apply outwards pressure on the tree branch.  Increasing the angle of the tree fork will allow the flow of the tree sap to that area, which then allows new-growth bark to thicken and thus, prevent the bark tissue from decaying. When the new-growth bark thickens, it will eventually cover the canker area.
